My western tea drinking setup.

Welcome to share your thoughts on what you like, don't like or anything you do that I don't.

I keep a small setup in my room for tea

A 3.5 cup pot.
A matching cup
A cup for holding the tea strainer.

Water is placed in the pot outside and allowed to brew in room. Once brewed tea strainer can be left in the spare cup, and tea can be enjoyed.

Occasionally I will bring condiments of jam, juices or sugar in the spare cup, in which case I use the saucer to hold the tea strainer.
